A Quilt for Audrey




This is the little quilt I made for my granddaughter.   Isn't it cute!



I found this great modern quilt book, Modern Quilts from the Blogging Universe,  by That Patchwork Place, at The Fabric Basket in my hometown, Petersburg, Alaska.  It has  all kinds of fun quilt patterns.


I picked out a pattern by Spotted Stones- isn't it a fun quilt!!


I had some charm squares and a few yards of fabric I found at The Cotton Ball in Morro Bay, California a couple of years ago.  The green is from my local fabric shop, The Fabric Basket.





I put a soft and cozy Moda flannel on the back.  This durable, adorable quilt is perfect for my little Audrey.

    It's beautiful Kathi; I'm sure your little Audrey will love it. I like your pretty swirly quilting;it's just right with the patchwork squares.

    That is a darling quilt. Did you do the quilting yourself? Domestic machine or long arm? Beautiful project.

      Thank you Karen! I did the quilting on my Bernina. The quilting part is not my favorite but I get it done.

    Hi Kathi!
    Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving a nice comment. You are a "no reply" blogger (in case you didn't know). I love your quilt. I have that book and wasn't inspired by theirs, yours is so much nicer! Your granddaughter will love it!

    what a sweet quilt! I love that shade of aqua that you chose for the background. The colors really pop against it!

    Thanks for linking up with Needle and Thread Thursday!
